ITT: Post the most retarded game-breaking bugs you've ever encountered

I just found out that because I killed this faggot 50+ hours ago, it's impossible for me to finish Fallout 3 without cheating. What a fucking joke.

>fallout 3
that entire game is a bug

that's not a bug. don't just go murdering everybody, you big dum dum

why would you ever play fallout 3

Fallout 3 is a piece of shit game, you should have expected it. Either way though, the finale is a load of shit so you didn't miss anything.

I thought important NPCs can not die

If you're on PC, just use the console command suggested by the wiki. If not... why the fuck are you playing this on a console? Download it on PC, or better yet, get New Vegas on PC

Seriously though, fix the bug and just power through the main story, the game sucks compared to New Vegas.. and even 4 is a much better game.

It's not like this guy is story-essential, it's just that his death causes something completely unrelated to bug out.

>without cheating
nigga it's a bethesda game, use the fucking console commands if their shitty engine fucks you over. that's not cheating.

...

Wow, that's a much better way of doing things. Why the fuck did they take that out in newer games, replacing it with an infuriating invincibility system?

probably simpler to just add the essential flag

OP's character is completely unnecessary to the storyline though, and only breaks the quest because
>bethesda

Gah

fucking Todd

Even Morrowind had problems where essential characters could die and that message wouldn't appear. Look up "Unofficial Essential NPCs"

I got random "vilified" by BoS and legion for some reason in NV.

Didn't receive the typical warning prior and I didn't trigger anything.

Obsidian could've easily spent another year ironing out the bugs and made a 10/10

pretty easy, VTMB, the entire game, it wasn't till fan patch version 34394 I was able to play it at all on win 8.1

You sure you haven't just put on NCR armor or something?

welp if you're a consolefag you're in luck there's a sort of solution. Climb buildings until you can glitch yourself out of the map in Megaton then proceed to the NPC graveyard across the invisible hills of the open world, I forget exactly where it is or what you do once you get there but you can resurrect dead people. I was a poor xboxfag who needed to rescue crazy wolfgang from the underworld for his 100% repair skill and I conquered the underworld to do it.

Clearly that is what the essential flag does in that game. Pop up that message.

I dunno I never played that game

holy fucking shit

Holy shit, that's really impressive

fuck you this can't be real
does your dad work for nintendo too?

I might try this out for fun, thanks

Not the user who originally posted but I found some kid's video from 2009. I think it only works if the NPC didn't die though

All these years and I'm still learning about the bizarre Besthesda fuckery that makes up this game.

Do you know about the train hat yet?

That one is still the crown jewel in my eyes.

What are some other good examples of Bethesda """"""""""technology""""""""""?

Here's a shortcut they used to making tables in Skyrim.

pfftahahaha

These are actually genius and a great way to save time on game design without the player noticing, you've literally got to go into a texture editing software to find the train or noclip underground to see the table

i think it would be a better idea to just stop using the morrowind engine instead

Also, some non-important NPCs had that message pop up when they died.

Reminds me of glitching out of bounds in Pokemon to catch Darkrai

>look it up to remember how to do it
>they've figured out how to catch arceus

God bless Gamefreak's terrible coding

post moar

you sure sound like THAT kid

> Gamefreak's terrible coding
the game is actually very well programmed, and you don't encounter any errors in normal gameplay.
A game having some glitches doesn't mean it's poorly coded, it's almost impossible to completely rid a game of these kinds of things.

Fpbp

>move in a circle
>open a portal to parallel universes

how many A presses can you do it in though?

I thought it was a lie until recently. Some mew under the truck shit or some meme. Fuck me how was I supposed to believe that? The truth truely is stranger than fiction.

None once you get the bike. You can also gather Darkrai, Shaymin and Arceus for a big jamboree, although that takes more A presses

Great way to produce more polygons than necessary, you mean.

obsidian were not allowed to. they had to cut loads of content and rush the game out quickly because of bethesda.

Serious question Sup Forums: How is it possible for one studio to be so incredibly incompetent at actually making games, but the publishing side of the business can put out good shit once in a while?

me like money

>todd allow you to kill important npc
>you rage because you killed important npc
>todd disallow you to kill important npc
>you rage because you can't kill important npc

What do you want ?

>I literally cannot read: the post

the death of an npc, named but genuinely unimportant, shouldn't have any effect on the ending of the game: it's very literally a bug in that killing him will, for whatever reason, just stop the game functioning. he's not essential to the story nor should be, so if he dies it's all fucked for no reason

so no, we
>want todd to make a functioning fucking game

Great way to intersect geometry and cause performance issues.

>Hurr durr I kill da mans but my game no goes, it not my fault, its da todds huahuah?
